Highlight-a-Word: /ow/ and /ou/

Speaking of highlighting in my last post, I just created this highlight-a-word activity for one of our shared reading stories, so feel free to use it if you like! We are going to be working on vowel pattern /ou/ and /ow/. To use this activity, students read the words in the box. They then get to highlight the words with the spelling patterns, and they "X" out the other ones. Then, they write and sort the words they highlighted. Finally, they get to use one of the words to write a sentence!

Spin Sort and Spell

Here is a phonics sorting activity I created. I originally made this activity for our phonics skill in shared reading, but I have modified it a few times to fit whatever phonics skill I am focusing on in my guided reading groups. To play, each person gets a sheet. Players take turns spinning the spinner with a paperclip. They then think of a word with that phonics pattern, and then they write it in the correct column. The first player to fill up one of their columns is the winner! Enjoy and feel free to edit and modify it however you like! Go to this link to download, or I think you can click the picture.
